Will look into this, how does Doom3 run on your system?


RE: Performance problems after combat? - preifx - 04-20-2007

Doom3 has lower FPS than Penumbra on my computer, I played doom3 with a low graphic detail...but in penumbra, I can turn on 2x FSAA & 2x anisotropy at 1024x768, no motion blur(I don't like it), no bloom(the picture is not so correct), without the "dogs", it runs well.

unzip this to your redist directiory and see how the framerate is. Try pressing 1 and turning off shadows and see how that affects it.

Since I'm still having the exact same problem, I'll try your tester
I get 45 fps, with or without shadows

(3000+ 64, gf6800gt)

Nice shadows by the way, shadowmapping or shadow-volumes/stencils?

shadow-volumes/stencils

Could you press R aswell, this will take the dog into ragdoll mode.

Unfortunately I can't download from the url, can you attach the file with your post or upload to another location?


RE: Performance problems after combat? - preifx - 04-20-2007

And, although I haven't tried the url you posted, but I tried to turn off shadows in the game, set vertex shader level to "very low", I may say it's a little improve, but really no improve, the FPS's looks like from 0.5 up to 1.0. haha...

Hi, Thomas
I have tried the model viewer:

2 IE windows and 2 icq chatting windows open, eMule 0.47c running, the model viewer runs in window mode, it has a 44.9 ~ 45.1 FPS rate, no matter what key I press, 1 or R or other numbers.
